Westrin was referring to an offer Kaktus made to Gears to polish up 682, an effort that is pretty dead in the water at this point. What you're referring to is when Epic Phail Spy (whose contributions were discovered recently and who has been listed as a coauthor due to the scale of his influence) rewrote it on editthis and created the first version of the termination logs.

Rewrite Captain Here. 049 was rewritten by Kaktus AND the original author GabrielJade working together. 682 has not been rewritten and most likely will not ever be rewritten. No classic articles will ever be rewritten unless the creator gives consent or they reach below +10 in rating.
